Several good stores near South Street:
611 Records is Josh Wink's place, 611 S. 4th - might have already moved
across the street.
House, techno, jungle, ambient, trance, tons of vinyl, good selection of CDs.
Digital Underground on 5th between South and Lombard - dark ambient,
industrial, trance, FAX, etc.
State of the Art on South between 6th and 8th...?
New place; haven't been there yet, supposedly great, hopes to fill the void
left by 3rd Street's demise.
HMV on 15th and Walnut and Tower on South - too expensive, but you can find
some gems if you dig around.
There's another DJ store on Pine near 12th, mostly house.
